How do you get text to wrap in a window you've opened, rather than have it "fall off" the edge? I'm sure I used to know, but can't remember for the life of me!

Mainly on the basis of which one I'm likely to load up, it would have to be Superfrog. Unlike others here, I don't find it uncontrollable at all, nor does the speed detract from the exploration,...
